The author does like to from scratch, kzfaq.infoUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practise the full stack project, is still great.

As long as the finished product/project looks amazing, it does not matter the brand of the tools you used. I have never been asked what brand of tool I used. I was once told; a poor craftsman blames his tools. Just keep being creative and keep challenging yourself, but most importantly have fun.

This seems like one of my projects with multiple trips to the lumberyard, the hardware store, and then going back for the right tool.

And then messing up one board and having to go back and get another and once it's all said and done, your wife asks how much it cost and it's usually at least $100 more than the estimate you gave to get her on board 😂

Thanks for coming to the Home of the Depot! I live a few miles from there (my wedding reception was actually in the square back when the air was clean and sex was dirty). I've lived here 30 years and I'd never heard of that pear dish. I thought everyone around here used Duke's Mayo, not Miracle Whip LOL. I wish you'd let us know you were coming. I'm sure there's at least a dozen of us local makers who could have let y'all borrow some of our questionable tools and playfully heckled you while you were digging those holes in our lovely red clay. That project turned out amazing. Great video!

On drilling long holes with a regular drill, try using a straight bit. The augur bits drive themselves. Also put the drill on the slow power sitting and go in and out to remove the chips.

@JonSenior 6 ай бұрын

Seconded. I use auger bits exclusively and routinely drill holes up to 300mm (12") without even thinking about it. Highly recommend Fisch (Austrian) or Star-M (Japanese) bits. When we built our house we burned (literally) through about 5 cheap corded drills from our local DIY store before I realised that we weren't saving any money and actually bought a branded one! I kept them for a long time as a reminder that short term saving != long term saving.

This turned out to be a great build! Every time I see these builds I think about whether I have sufficient tools to make a build, such as this one. But, I see that most of us don’t have everything you might need, or have tools that aren’t the best quality. But in the end, there’s always a way to make the build happen, even if you have to search for the wood or buy cheap tools at Harbor Freight! All in, this build probably came in at about $1,000, but to have someone come in to make it for you would have cost maybe as much as $7500!

@jasonwoodring9977 7 ай бұрын

As someone who lives in the north Atlanta suburbs as well I will say the struggle to find materials is 100% accurate. Only a few places around and of those only a couple have what you need and/or actually want to help you

9:51 That is the most hilarious wiring job I've ever seen. 16:39 This guy lives a pretty amazing life, when you stop and think about it. 29:09 You know... Given that this design started as an AI generated image, it shows that you can drive inspiration from the improbable or impossible. Ask an AI image generator to come up with an idea, and then work out the details yourself to create a real world version. Pretty damn cool. Outstanding project.

@paulferraby1202 7 ай бұрын

great video, really enjoyed it! I think the problem with drilling the coach bolt holes was probably that the flutes were filling up and the chips had nowhere to go other than sideways and binding in the hole. That's probably why the 'babying' technique worked because the flutes will have cleared when you pulled back. I don't have a theory for why the bolts were too short though ;-)

Big fan Jason! I was a carpenter in my twenties. I have been electronic security contractor the last 35 years. I have drilled more holes in wood and concrete than just about any tradesman you will ever meet. For drilling those bolts in the pergola I would recommend a small spade bit to start. Go all the way through and then use that 5/8 auger bit. Myself and my techs have the large Dewalt and Milwaukee right angle drills for that kind of job so no pre drilling necessary. Keep up the great work!!
